PRELIMINARY-RESULTS OF GAAS SINGLE-CRYSTAL GROWTH UNDER HIGH GRAVITY CONDITIONS

GaAs single crystals have been grown under high gravity conditions, up to 9g0, by a recrystallization method with decreasing temperature. The impurity striations in GaAs grown under high gravity become weak and indistinct with smaller striation spacings. The dislocation density of surcharge-grown GaAs increases with increase of centrifugal force. The cathodoluminescence results also show worse perfection in the GaAs grown at high gravity than at normal earth gravity.

INTERACTION OF CO WITH SI AND SIO2 DURING RAPID THERMAL ANNEALING

The interaction of Co with Si and SiO2 during rapid thermal annealing has been investigated. Phase sequence, layer morphology, and reaction kinetics were studied by sheet resistance, x-ray diffraction, Auger electron spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. With increasing annealing temperature, Co film on Si(100) is transformed sequentially into Co2Si, CoSi, and finally CoSi2 which corresponds to the minimum of sheet resistance. No evidence of silicide formation was observed for Co/SiO2 annealed even at the high temperature of 1050-degrees-C.

Formation of Fe-N films containing Fe6N2 phase by ion beam assisted deposition

Fe-N films were deposited on Si(100) and GaAs(100) substrates at room temperature by ion beam assisted deposition under various N/ Fe atomic arrival ratio, 0.09, 0.12, 0.15. The results of X-ray diffraction indicated that the film deposited at 0.12 of N/Fe arrival ratio contained a considerable fraction of the Fe16N2 phase which had grown predominantly in the [001] orientation. For the larger N/Fe arrival ratio, a martensite phase with 15 at.% nitrogen was obtained. It was found that a lower deposition temperature (<200 degrees C) was necessary for the formation of the Fe16N2 phase.

Energy level analyses of even-parity J=1 and 2 Rydberg states of Sn I by multichannel quantum defect theory

This paper analyzes the energy levels along the even-parity J=1 and 2 Rydberg series of Sn I by multichannel quantum defect theory. A good agreement between theoretical and experimental energy levels was achieved. Below 59198 cm~(-1), a total of 85 and 23 new energy levels, respectively, in the J=1 and J=2 series, which cannot be measured previously by experiments, are predicted in this work. Based on the calculated admixture coefficients of each channel, interchannel interactions were discussed in detail. The results are helpful to understand the characteristics of configuration interaction among even-parity levels in Sn I.

InP-base resonant tunneling diodes

We have fabricated In_0.53Ga_0.47As/AlAs/InP resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs) based on the air-bridge technology by using electron beam lithography processing.The epitaxial layers of the RTD were grown on semi-insulating (100) InP substrates by molecular beam epitaxy.RTDs with a peak current density of 24.6 kA/cm~2 and a peak-to-valley current ratio of 8.6 at room temperature have been demonstrated.

Zn-doped InGaAs Base Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors Grown by Low Pressure Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition

High performance InP/InGaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors(HBTs) have been widely used in high-speed electronic devices and optoelectronic integrated circuits. InP-based HBTs were fabricated by low pressure metal organic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD) and wet chemical etching. The sub-collector and collector were grown at 655 ℃ and other layers at 550 ℃. To suppress the Zn out-diffusion in HBT, base layer was grown with a 16-minute growth interruption. Fabricated HBTs with emitter size of 2.5×20 μm~2 showed current gain of 70~90, breakdown voltage(BV_(CE0))>2 V, cut-off frequency(f_T) of 60 GHz and the maximum relaxation frequency(f_(MAX)) of 70 GHz.

High power red-light GaInP/AlGaInP laser diodes with nonabsorbing windows based on Zn diffusion-induced quantum well intermixing

The layer structure of GaInP/AlGaInP quantum well laser diodes (LDs) was grown on GaAs substrate using low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (LP-MOCVD) technique. In order to improve the catastrophic optical damage (COD) level of devices, a nonabsorbing window (NAW), which was based on Zn diffusion-induced quantum well intermixing, was fabricated near the both ends of the cavities. Zn diffusions were respectively carried out at 480, 500, 520, 540, and 580 Celsius degree for 20 minutes. The largest energy blue shift of 189.1 meV was observed in the window regions at 580 Celsius degree. When the blue shift was 24.7 meV at 480 Celsius degree, the COD power for the window LD was 86.7% higher than the conventional LD.
